Overview
When a sim plays a musical instrument, every other sim on the lot will drop what they are doing to watch. NOT ANY MORE! this mod will stop sims from autonomously watching others play any musical instrument: guitar, bass, piano, drums, and/or laser harp.
Why?
Having everyone run towards the music gets frustrating after a while, particularly if your just skill building or killing time. To me it's also unrealistic, when someone plays an instrument all the time you stop going to listen and just carry on with your day.

Known Issues
With this mod installed sims will no longer earn any simoleons when playing for tips. Tips are calculated while npc's are watching the player and since this mod stops npc's from wathing it also effectively stops them from tipping. You can still direct sims to tip but they are no longer driven to do so on their own
If you only care to play for tips with select instruments than you can still safely install the separate files for the other instruments. For example, if you have late night but only play for tips with the guitar and piano, you can still install the drums and bass modules without effecting your guitar and piano earnings.
I tried to find a fix for this but there are too many different files involving tipping and I could not figure it out. If any one else has any ideas I am all ears.
Conflicts
This mod overides the ITUN files and will conflict with any others that alter them
Watch_BassGuitar
Watch_Drums
Watch_Guitar
Watch_LaserHarp
Watch_Piano
It only effects the files with the instruments you have installed
If you only have NoAutoWatchPiano, than it only effects the Watch_Piano ITUN
